Navigating marine biodiversity for a better tomorrow – Episode 52
Marine biodiversity is a precious resource – but it has long been under threat. Today's coral reefs, for example, cover half the area they did in 1950, and nearly 10 per cent of marine life is at risk of extinction.
How can we support small-scale producers who rely on the sea for an income while protecting it? From aquaculture to the blue economy, we tackle pressing questions about farming and marine life, especially in the context of climate change. We ask experts including ecologist Martina O’Brien and Paolo Silveri, IFAD Country Director for Haiti, how coastal communities around the world can safeguard our oceans’ staggering biodiversity while producing food.
